Alone Denmark (transl. "Alene i vildmarken") is a television program that premiered on 1 January 2017 on DR3. It is the Danish version of the North American television show Alone.[1]
Format
A group of contestants are sent out into the wilderness in total isolation and with minimum survival equipment. They must film their experience themselves as they struggle with hunger, cold, isolation, the harsh environment and their own mental struggle.[2] Each participant is given an emergency GPS transmitter and a satellite phone that they can use to withdraw from the competition or to call for help at any time.
Before the competition begins, participants must pass medical and psychological checks as well as basic bushcraft trials (eg. shelter building, fire making).
Unlike the North American version, there is no prize money for the winner in the Danish version.[3]
When the show returned in 2021 for a fifth season, the series switched from individual participants to pairs.[4]
